PLAY BY PLAY
Tony Schiavone waits by a private airplane.
Dynamite is kicking off, but the Nightmare Family arrives in Charleston. Cody is ready to sign that AEW World Championship contract, and gets an encouraging hug from Dustin. Cody and Tony head to the car. Cody figures “it’s just another match, right?” Well a little bit more than that. Tony gets to ride with the American Nightmare, but will the Inner Circle make the entire night a nightmare?
AEW recaps what happened after TNT had to cut away.
Jon Moxley and PAC were not satisfied with their time limit draw, but it was The Bastard who almost ended the Death Rider! However, Kenny Omega and Hangman Page came out to make the save. Omega still wants Moxley at Full Gear, and Hangman dares Pac to man up for another round!
But there was more to what happened after the show was over. Tony Khan asked to see Moxley, and Moxley stormed his way to the boss’ office. Khan says they could no longer sanction Omega VS Moxley!? Moxley doesn’t get it. So this match won’t count on the win-loss record? Exactly. Khan knows it’ll be great, but he doesn’t want AEW to be held responsible for what happens between them. “You gotta be f***ing kidding me, man!” But Khan doesn’t get why Moxley is upset, this should be good since unsanctioned matches are no disqualification. Moxley tells Khan to shut up, because he wants his win over Omega to be on the record! He’s been working too hard these last couple of months for this! Moxley had the balls to go after the “top boy” and now he’s just some “freak show” to Khan? That’s just like how everywhere else treats Moxley!
Khan keeps trying to reason with Moxley, but Moxley doesn’t care. What happens next, what happens to Omega, is on Khan’s hands now! Moxley storms out, will he make Khan and AEW management regret this?
Sammy Guevara VS Hangman Adam Page!
The Inner Circle and the Elite do battle through the #BestEver and the Problem Solver! Will Hangman keep momentum on the way to a rematch with Pac at the expense of the “young Spanish god”?
The bell rings and fans are more on Hangman’s side than Sammy’s. Sammy pretends not to care as he takes his time taking off his jacket. They circle and tie up, and they end up on the ropes. Hangman has control but lets up at the ref’s count. Sammy insults Hangman and his horse, but Hangman CHOPS him back! And CHOPS again! Hangman whips but Sammy dodges, only to run into a BOOT! Fans cheer as Hangman wrenches Sammy to a shoulder breaker, then a suplex! Cover, TWO! Hangman drags Sammy up but Sammy headlocks to block. Hangman still back suplexes but Sammy slips out and shoves. Sammy follows, hurdles, back flips and dropkicks! Then shows of as he stands up and takes a bow. Fans boo as Sammy snap suplexes Hangman to a cover, TWO!
Charleston chants “Sammy Sucks!” but Sammy pretends not to hear it. Sammy brings Hangman up to CHOP and forearm, then ram him into a corner. Sammy CHOPS again, then whips, but Hangman reverses to run in and throat chop to SLAP! Fans cheer as Sammy flounders up. Sammy BOOTS back, then hops up, to leap!

But Hangman just gets angry and CHOPS Sammy back! And again! Hangman throws haymakers then whips, but Sammy reverses, only for Hangman to swing him around. Sammy blocks the clothesline to spin Hangman around, but Hangman comes with the southpaw clothesline, only for Sammy to flip through! And SUPERKICK! Hangman still LARIATS! Fans are loving this “A E Dub!” opener! A standing count begins and climbs to 5, but Hangman is up at 7. Sammy follows as Charleston reaches a fever pitch. Hangman hits a corner to corner clothesline, whips Sammy and BOOTS him again! Then snap saido suplex! Sammy rolls out to the apron but Hangman is seething.
Hangman goes out to the apron to join Sammy, and brings him up for the Alabama lift. Sammy fights out to enziguri back! Then he hops back out, to run into a SCRAPBUSTER on the apron! Fans cheer while Sammy writhes, but Hangman puts him in for a POP-UP BOMB! Cover, TWO!! Sammy survives but Hangman drags Sammy up. He throws Sammy out hard, then heads to a corner. Hangman SUPER ASAIS! Direct hit!! Hangman puts Sammy in, tosses a wristband away, but Sammy gets far out of the Buckshot’s range. Hangman gets in and brings Sammy up, but sees the back hand coming. Hangman boots but Sammy knee strikes back! Rolling elbow from Hangman, but then Sammy puts him on the apron. Sammy forgets about the BUCKSHOT! Cover, Hangman wins!
Winner: Hangman Adam Page, by pinfall
The problem has been solved, and Hangman is rolling on towards Full Gear! Hangman grabs a mic and says, “It ain’t no secret that things haven’t been going so well for me. But tonight felt good!” And at Full Gear, Hangman says he’ll do some real “cowboy sh*t” and take Pac’s head off! Fans echo “Cowboy Sh*t!” as Hangman drops the mic. Will the Bastard get some Buckshot like Sammy just did?
Private Party has some legendary guests!
It’s the Rock ‘n’ Roll Express! Isiah Kassidy and Marq Quen are excited to see tag team icons, and give them VIP passes. Now they can all party together!
Shanna VS Hikaru Shida!
“Portugal’s Perfect Athlete” has her Dynamite debut, but she’s up against the sensational samurai of Stardom! Will Shida redeem herself from falling short at All Out here tonight?
The bell rings and the two circle. They tie up, Shanna waistlocks but Shida pries free to a standing switch. Shanna works to do the same, and wrenches to a shoulder breaker!

Winner: Hikaru Shida, by pinfall
What a shocking debut from Portugal’s Perfect Athlete, but being perfect was still not enough to stop Shida! Will this Stardom star shine on the road to the AEW Women’s World Championship?
Brandi Rhodes is going to a dark place.
She attacked Jamie Hayter without provocation, and without explanation. And now, she has pictures of top AEW Women’s Division contenders on her vanity mirror. She and Awesome Kong look to be preparing something truly wicked. What will become of the Women’s Division with these two growing stronger by the moment?
Chris Van Vliet is on stage to introduce the Rock ‘n’ Roll Express!
Robert Gibson and Ricky Morton present the AEW World Tag Team Championship belts to the world! It feels great to be back in Charleston, West Virginia! R’N’R beat the Oli and Arn Anderson in this very building. But now, Ortiz and Santana attack?! The Inner Circle’s Proud ‘n’ Powerful have no shame in attacking these living legends! Fans boo but the Boricuan Bad Boys won’t leave Ricky alone! They beat him with that weighted sock! P’N’P hold up the tag titles, but then let them go to go after Ricky more! DOUBLE POWERBOMB THROUGH THE STAGE!! The Young Bucks hurry out and run P’N’P off! The Bucks check on their heroes, the R’N’R Express, but it might be too little too late. Medics hurry to help Ricky while AEW goes to break.
AEW checks in with Cody and Schiavone.
They’re still some time away from the arena. The contract signing is coming, this reminds of Tuscon, Arizona, Schiavone had an interview with Willie Nelson at the pool. Schiavone went to Dusty’s room and found him “buck naked.” Dusty asked if Willie was already at the pool, and yes he ways. Dusty said, “Good,” and got dressed. The American Dream told Schiavone, “The star always comes out last.” So that’s the master plan for Cody tonight? Make Chris Jericho wait? Yep.
Cody thinks back to his dad, and he’s so excited to sign this contract. Mama Rhodes will be at Full Gear, and Cody thinks about all the shows she saw of Dusty. Cody can’t help but want to impress her. It seems so strange, with Jericho surely flanked by the Inner Circle. Cody knows how great Jericho is, but this is his time now. Schiavone knows the Rhodes/Rennels family will all be watching. That emotion is good, it will drive Cody to be even better. That’s just Schiavone’s advice, even though he’s not a wrestling coach. The history of everything, Schiavone is honored. Cody is glad to have Schiavone with him.
Six Man Tag: QT Marshal, Alex Reynolds & John Silver VS Best Friends & Orange Cassidy!
God’s Gift to Wrestling is back on TV, alongside the Beaver Boys, but Charleston doesn’t seem to care. But fans do love that Rick & Morty are hanging with the Best Friends and Orange Cassidy! The three even cosplay Rick and Morty, and another Rick!
The teams sort out and Silver starts against Chuckie T. They tie up and Chuckie headlocks but Silver powers out. Chuckie runs Silver over then tags in Trent. They double whip and double shoulder Silver down. Trent loses his wig but quickly puts it back on. Trent brings Silver up to CHOP down, then facelock. Silver slips out and snatches the hair to then BOOT Trent down! Reynolds and QT bum rush Chuckie and Cassidy while Silver holds up his trophy. The ref reprimands the trio while Silver whips Trent in for a corner clothesline. Reynolds and QT add their own, then Silver runs in, only to miss! Trent hits a tornado DDT! Tag to Chuckie, and Chuckie rallies on QT and Reynolds! Chuckie clotheslines Reynolds out then gives QT a standing Sliced Bread! Fans fire up as Chuckie runs in at Silver, but Silver dodges.
Trent tags back in, Silver runs into a rising knee! Trent hits Silver with the shotgun knee! Chuckie gives Trent back his wig, but Reynolds runs in, only to get Sole Food Half ‘n’ Half! The wigs are back on, but QT ruins the hug! Orange Cassidy returns! And he has his hands in his pocket, so you know he means business! QT talks trash but gets a “devastating” series of Sloth kicks. QT dodges the superkick, but not the no-hands dropkick! QT tumbles out while Cassidy kips up! And the ref helps him with his glasses, before everyone hugs! Cassidy then NO HAND TOPES! Silver gets the STRONG ZERO! Cover, Best Friends win!
Winners: Best Friends, Trent pinning
Rick & Morty is back on Adult Swim on November 10th, but Freshly Squeezed and his new friends are winning right here! Will Cassidy, Trent and Chuckie T rise to the top of AEW together?
It is time for the AEW World Championship contract signing!
The table is on stage as LE CHAMPEON appears first! Chris Jericho is in the Halloween spirit with that jack o’lantern suit jacket. Jericho sets the title on the table and takes a seat, but as Dusty Rhodes told Schiavone, the star comes out last. And arriving just now is The American Nightmare! Schiavone and Cody head inside, knowing full well they’re making Jericho wait. Jericho shrugs it off as Cody makes his entrance, Schiavone by his side. Cody takes his seat across the table and Schiavone welcomes Charleston to this contract signing.
Saturday, November 9th, Baltimore, Maryland, Full Gear, Chris Jericho VS Cody Rhodes for the AEW World Championship. Jericho revels in the heat the fans heap on him while Cody soaks up all the cheers. This match will have a 60 minute time limit, with a panel of three judges, should time run out. The contract is ready, and Cody takes it first as the challenger. Cody reads it over while fans cheer, and he signs his name. The contract is then passed to Jericho as fans boo. Jericho reads it over, then stands up fast. Cody reacts, and Jericho laughs at him. “Sit down, sit down.” This match is too important. Fans tell Jericho, “You Suck!” but Jericho doesn’t care, they can chant away. Jericho says he doesn’t suck, “Skeeavone” sucks.
But this match is too important to powerbomb Cody through the table. This is the biggest match in AEW history, in all of pro-wrestling in 2019, and of Cody’s career. If Cody wins, he’ll finally be a world champion. But if Cody loses, it might prove to him and the “entitled Millennial jackasses” that that he’s not as good as he thinks he is. Jericho promises to sign the contract and then teach Cody a lesson “of what it’s like to be a loser.” Jericho takes his time clicking the pen, and then signs. Jericho then stands up again, but Cody is ready. Cody even takes off his jacket just in case. Jericho tells the “hillbillies” to calm down, then looks Cody up and down. Two gentlemen keeping things civil, not making a mockery out of the title. They’re true professionals, after all. And Le Champeon has the poise and grace to ask for a handshake. Fans are wary, but Cody accepts. The two shake hands, but then Cody pulls Jericho in close. Tension rises, and fans want to see a scuffle, but Jericho says Cody “might be needed elsewhere.”
Sammy has a camera feed going, back at the limousine. Because Jake Hager is attacking Dustin Rhodes! He slams Dustin onto the limo, then knees him against it! And very, very low! He uses Dustin’s head to dent the trunk! Cody hurries to the back but Hager SLAMS the door shut on Dustin’s arm!! Cody finally arrives, along with MJF and security, but clearly the damage is done! The Inner Circle is ordered to leave, and Jericho smokes a cigar as he watches on. Jericho mocks Dustin’s pain and Cody’s anger before riding away with his Inner Circle. Schiavone said to use emotion in this coming match. Is Cody only going to have that much more to use against Jericho? Or will this be too much to handle?
Six Man Tag: The Elite VS Kip Sabian & The Hybrid2!
The challenged was issued by Superbad, Angelico and Jack Evans, and it was accepted! Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks may have a lot on their plate, but can they handle a little more? Or will Sabian and #TH2 be able to capitalize this close to Full Gear?
But wait. What is this ominous message for Omega? “You remember us, don’t you…? We’re still inseparable after all this time, aren’t we…? CLEANER. Remember your friends?” An image of Hangman, the Young Bucks, even Riho and Michael Nakazawa appears. “Remember your BEST friend?” Is that the Golden Star? “He was never on your side. And now it’s only a matter of time until everyone else goes away, too. Doesn’t it hurt being alone? Don’t worry. We can help you. Join us… And your pain will end FOREVER!!!” Wait, something is breaking through the illusions! “Yeah… Stick a sock in it, pal. Mind if I tag in this time, Kenny?” The Elite goes Deltarune! The AAA Omega Champion is Sans! And Matt and Nick Jackson are once again Street Fight’s Ryu and Ken! Will they make it game over in Charleston?
But before the bell, Sabian and TH2 attack! The ref has no choice but to ring the bell while the three beat down The Elite! The Bucks get kicked out and Sabian springboard sentons onto them both! TH2 beat up Omega, then shout at the ref. They double whip but Omega dodges and redirects to dropkick their legs out! Then Omega gives them both the Kotaru Krusher! Sabian returns to kick low and throw hands. But the Bucks return to get Sabian with the alley-oop dropkick! Fans fire up with The Elite as they run at Sabian. Sabian puts Nick on the corner, but that just sets himself up for Nick and Omega kick-elbow combo! Omega feeds Sabian to Matt’s takedown, catapult double enziguri! Sabian falls against Matt’s knees, Nick double stomps in! Fans are all fired up as the Elite has the ring!
The Terminator drums begin but TH2 yank the Bucks out! Evans springboard roundhouses Omega down! Then Evans handsprings, Sasuke Special with a little extra! Sabian stomps Matt down and covers, TWO! Sabian drags Matt up and snap suplexes to another cover, TWO! Fans rally for the Bucks as Matt grits his teeth. Sabian bumps Matt off buckles then stomps away. He hoists Matt up top and throws forearms. Sabian climbs up while fans boo TH2. Matt rights back with body shots, but Sabian springboards for a SUPER STEINER! Cover, TWO! Tag to Evans and he brings Matt over. Tag to Angelico, and TH2 double whip Matt backwards! Evans handspring back elbows then Angelico lifts Matt. Evans springboards, dumdum stomp back suplex, into a modified triangle hold! Matt endures but Omega stomps him free! The ref reprimands the Elite while Sabian protests. Matt is in danger while AEW goes to break.
AEW returns as Matt SPEARS Sabian down! Nick Penalty Kicks Angelico and fans fire up! The Bucks combine, springboard splash and moonsault combo! Cover, TWO!! The Bucks are surprised but not deterred. Matt circles Sabian and brings him up to scoop. Fans declare “This is Awesome!” as Sabian slips out and torture racks Matt. Matt escapes the Deathly Hallows but Sabian gets a POISON-RANA! Both men are down but fans rally up. Matt and Sabian crawl, hot tags to Evans and Omega! Evans swings but misses, SNAP DRAGON! Angelico flies in, but also gets a SNAP DRAGON! Sabian kicks, but gets a CHOP! And a- No, Sabian denies the hat trick with an elbow, but swings into the SNAP DRAGON anyway! Fans fire up and Omega snaps his fingers. Sabian and TH2 finally fall over.
Omega takes aim at Evans, BANG, but Evans dodges. Evans waistlocks, Omega standing switches and German Suplexes, but Evans lands on his feet! Evans handspring ax kicks! But he rolls into the Bucks’ buckle bomb and boot combo! Sabian bumps Matt, springboard tornado DDT! SUPERKICK from Nick to Sabian! Eddy Gordo kick from Angelico and he fireman’s carries Nick. Matt anchors a foot, but Evans climbs up and over to dumdum stomp to MOONSAULT! Angelico has Nick up, but Omega V-TRIGGERS Angelico down! Omega has the fans at a fever pitch, and then the Terminator drums begins. Omega rises, takes aim, but Sabian intercepts to throw him out. Sabian mocks the Terminator mode, then runs, to FLY, and get caught, for a TRIPLE APRON BOMB!!
Omega goes into the ring, but Evans boots him back. Evans takes too long bragging, he springboards into a TRIPLE SUPERKICK! Omega takes aim, BANG, V-TRIGGER! And then, Electric Chair, ONE WINGED ANGEL! Cover, The Elite wins!!
Winners: The Elite, Omega pinning
There’s a reason why they call themselves “The Elite!” Sabian and The Hybrid2 learned that first hand, but will Omega and the Bucks continue to prove that?
The Bucks high-five fans, but two Rick & Morty fans won’t let go. Oh no, how did Ortiz and Santana get back in the building?! They drag Matt and Nick over the railing to beat them down! Omega hurries over and runs them off, but Proud ‘n’ Powerful get away without a scratch. What must AEW do to keep the Inner Circle under control?
Peter Avalon w/ Leva Bates VS ???
Once again, The Librarians come out to hush the crowd. And once again, the fans boo back. “It’s Halloween time, which means it is right now appropriate for all you hideous monsters to look the way you do.” Avalon and Bates were at the university library today, and they discovered some evidence as to why wrestling hasn’t come here in almost 20 years. “This place is rotten!” But wait, here comes Jon Moxley! He is coming in through the crowd and to the ring! And he gets in the ring, to give Avalon a Paradigm Shift!! Fans cheer for Moxley in thanks, and then Moxley takes up the mic.
“The grudge match everybody wants to see at Full Gear, Kenny Omega and Jon Moxley, is now an unsanctioned match.” That means no time limits, no count outs, no rules! That’s all fun, but that also means it officially doesn’t count on the record. It officially won’t be on the records, as if it isn’t taking place. Which means when Moxley beats the “so called greatest wrestler int he world,” AEW will pretend like it never happened! This is AEW treating Moxley like an outsider, a freak, in his own little box. Moxley has dealt with this his whole life! This suits, these puppets, all saying he’s a “different type of cat,” as if he doesn’t understand they’re insulting him! He isn’t stupid, but if this is how it is going to be, AEW can take the win-loss records and shove them up their ass! Moxley is the baddest SOB in the game! The sickest SOB in the game! And there ain’t no one can prove him wrong!
If AEW wants unsanctioned, they’ve got it! If they think he’s out of control now, “you ain’t seen nothing yet!” Moxley promises to beat Omega within an inch of his life when he brings “beautiful, glorious wrestling violence the likes of which we haven’t seen in this country in decades.” Omega’s blood will be on AEW’s hands! Moxley tells AEW and TNT the same thing he told the puppets, and the same thing he’ll tell anyone that doesn’t like him: “Kiss my ass and stay the hell out of my way!” Just what won’t the Death Rider do to the Best Bout Machine in Baltimore?

“This is your main event of the evening!” The titles are presented, the introductions are made, and history is also being made in Charleston! Who will be forever known as the first-ever AEW World Tag Team Champions?!
Private Party watches ringside while The Dark Order have seats backstage, made using their creepy underlings. The teams are all riled up and the fans are already thunderous but referee Aubrey Edwards works to maintain order. The teams calm down and Frankie Kazarian is ready to start with Pentagon.

An incredible and truly stunning victory! The Lucha Brothers still need a moment to register it happened, but we all just witnessed history! Will Charleston forever be the BEST town SCU’s ever been in?
My Thoughts:
An incredible episode right here! So much amazing stuff, even the “filler” was a lot of fun. First, it was quite obvious tonight was sponsored by Rick & Morty, fans got to have Halloween masks and Best Friends plus Cassidy cosplaying, it was hilarious. Naturally Best Friends and Cassidy win, but it was still a good spot for QT Marshall to make his television in-ring return, since he already had his AEW Dark debut. I would love to see if QT Marshall makes a feud with Cassidy and talks about apples and oranges. While we learned about Moxley VS Omega being Unsanctioned from the TV spot to open, it was great for Moxley to attack Peter Avalon and then make it known to the crowd. His promo was amazing, though I am surprised with his line about the win-loss record. We’re basically a month into AEW using those, seems almost too soon to be saying anything about it. But if this means we’re getting an even more intense match than what both Moxley and Omega have had against Joey Janela, this is going to be insane.
The one great thing about AEW right now is that what you would think is a squash match is anything but. Shanna comes out of nowhere to debut, and she puts on a hell of a match with Hikaru Shida. In the end, Shida wins as she technically needs it more to stay afloat in the Women’s Division. I’m also really curious as to what Brandi Rhodes and Awesome Kong are plotting for the division, with Brandi going spooky Heel in that vignette. Hangman VS Sammy was a great opener, but boy the Inner Circle was busy tonight. I feel like Ortiz and Santana were used a little too much. Either attack Rock ‘n’ Roll Express and still go after the Bucks right after, or be in disguise as Rick & Morty fans to attack the Bucks after their match. Doing both seems redundant, but at the same time, things seemed to align where they could do both with it being Rick & Morty night. The attack on R’N’R was definitely more impactful, so I would’ve stuck to just that.
The Elite VS Sabian & TH2 was still a great Six Man, though. Everything was so much fun, from the Undertale style intro for Kenny to Sabian & TH2 taking the fight to The Elite. In the end, The Elite wins, because it keeps them all strong towards Full Gear, and again sets up that Inner Circle ambush. The contract signing was done brilliantly. This is where playing off of what WWE does actually works, because Jericho of course references how almost ever contract signing in WWE ends in a fight between the signing parties. But here, it was about attacking Cody through his family, as Hager just wrecks Dustin. Hager has yet to have a match in AEW, and I’m pretty sure this kayfabe keeps Dustin away, but I don’t know if Cody would risk falling for an Inner Circle trap having a match so soon before Full Gear. Maybe we wait a bit, and Dustin can fight Hager on the road to the next AEW PPV as his revenge.
And of course, what could top it off better than the historic tag title match? Things got a bit dicey, though, with Kaz doing his huricanrana to Fenix on the apron. I think Kaz is getting too old for that spot in particular, but thankfully he didn’t injure himself right there. I suppose as the Faces, and unofficially dedicating this match to Christopher Daniels with the Angel’s Wings randomly, SCU were the right choices to win. This was historic enough, and we can worry about crowning dual champions some other time, depending on when and where The Lucha Brothers come back for another try. Obviously there are plenty of teams who will want those belts, and we might as well consider Young Bucks VS Ortiz & Santana the #1 Contender’s match right now. Either match up would be an instant classic, I just hope AEW can break the mold of always having Face(s) VS Heel(s), as far as title match stories go.
My Score: 9.2/10

AEW shares footage from after Dynamite.
Darby Allin made the save for Will Ospreay against Claudio Castagnoli, and Ospreay just wanted a second to talk. Ospreay says if Darby didn’t make that save, Ospreay wouldn’t be finishing this tournament. So just a quick one, Ospreay appreciates it and he thanks Darby very much. Darby says he just has this feeling. The same exact feeling that he had when Bryan Danielson got taken out. The same exact feeling he had when Chuck Taylor was taken out. Something is gonna happen again unless they all do something about it, so what is Ospreay willing to do? Darby says they can just find the Death Riders and put an end to this!
Ospreay says easy, now, tiger. But Darby says something is going to happen unless they do something! Ospreay understands, but can’t Darby see Ospreay’s got bigger things going on? He lost at WrestleDream, he lost at Full Gear, that’s back-to-back PPV loses and that does not happen to Ospreay. He has to regain momentum, and that means going through every single person in this tournament, and that includes Darby. Darby says that’s cute. Darby doesn’t care about Ospreay’s personal problems, or anyone else’s, because this is bigger than all of them. This is about AEW. Next year, there might not even be a Continental Classic if they don’t stop this now.
Doesn’t Ospreay see it? The Death Riders will keep chipping away and chipping away at everything that makes AEW what it is. So what is Ospreay doing? What is he doing about it? Ospreay is trying to win this tournament! He needs his momentum back. He can’t just drop everything. Ospreay needs this! So he’ll tell Darby this as a man who respects Darby: Ospreay respects everything Darby’s doing for AEW, but Ospreay needs his momentum. Then maybe afterwards, knock on his door. If Darby needs someone to fight alongside him, Ospreay’s game. See you next week. Ospreay heads out, but will either of them make it to the Holiday Bash?
Here are the current Continental Classic Blue League standings!
Kyle Fletcher: 3-0, 9 points
Kazuchika Okada: 1-1-1, 4 points
Daniel Garcia: 1-1-1, 4 points
Mark Briscoe: 1-2, 3 points
Shelton Benjamin: 1-1, 3 points
The Beast Mortos: 0-2, 0 points
Mark Briscoe speaks.
“Dem Boys in the house tonight, baby! Kyle Fletcher, I’m coming for you! I need this win, mathematically speaking! I’ma show you how we do! I’ma show you that I’m all dog, baby! All dog! ARF ARF RAA!”
Kyle Fletcher speaks.
“Mark Briscoe, I’m sorry, but tonight, you are just another victim for The Protostar. After tonight, it’ll be 12 points Fletch, and I will see you in the semifinals.”
Kazuchika Okada and Beast Mortos speak.
“Beast Mortos.” Mortos ROARS, but Okada says, “No. B*tch Mortos.” The Rainmaker has some strong words for the menacing minotaur, but will Mortos make sure the Continental Champion does NOT make it to Worlds End?
WrestleDynasty International Women’s Cup Qualifier AEW Finals: Jamie Hayter VS Willow Nightingale!
As the New Year approaches, so does that massive weekend in the Tokyo Dome! WrestleDynasty’s International Women’s Cup awaits, but will Hayter Hit Hard enough to punch her ticket to Japan? Or will the Babe with the Power look to add to her international list of accolades?
The bell rings, the two shake hands and the fans cheer the respect shown. The two tie up, Hayter hits a headlock takeover, but Willow has the headscissors.

Willow CHOPS in return! Willow puts Hayter in the corner to CHOP and the fans are dueling again! Willow CHOPS and CHOPS and CHOPS! Hayter CHOPS, CHOPS and CHOPS in return!

Hayter fires hands, then runs, but Willow DUMPS her to the apron! Hayter skins the cat but Willow throws a shot! Hayter ROCKS Willow in return, then drags her out to the apron, for an APRON DDT! Willow flops to the floor, but the lights go out!
Hayter looks around in a bit of a panic, was that Julia Hart teasing something? After all, Hart’s been calling her out lately. Willow uses the distraction to RAM Hayter into the apron! Willow then climbs up, and the fans fire up as Willow runs, CANNONBALL to the floor! The fans fire up with Willow while Collision goes picture in picture.
Willow drags Hayter up, puts her in the ring, but Hayter bails out the side. Willow is annoyed and goes out after her to stand her up. Willow CHOPS Hayter against the apron! But Hayter turns things around and CHOPS Willow against the apron! Willow fires hands, RAMS Hayter into the railing, then RAMS her into the apron! Willow RAMS Hayter back into the railing, and then throws Hayter into the ring. Hayter still bails out the side! Willow is annoyed again but she still goes after Hayter. Willow brings Hayter up and reels her in, but Hayter fights the suplex! Hayter then suplexes Willow to the floor!
Willow writhes but Hayter crawls away to roll into the ring. The ring count is past 5 of 10 but Willow rolls in at 7. Willow drags Hayter up, RAMS her into a corner, then goes up the corner. Willow drags Hayter up to join her, but Hayter fights back! They brawl, Hayter CLUBS away on Willow, then HEADBUTTS her!

Willow goes to ropes at 4 and uses those to stand at 5! Willow then straitjackets and torture racks Hayter!
Willow hits a RACK DROP! The fans fire up but Willow isn’t done, she adds a LIONSAULT! Cover, TWO!! Hayter survives and Willow is shocked! Willow smiles as she goes up a corner and the fans cheer again. But Hayter anchors Willow’s legs! Hayter carries Willow in a waistlock, HIGH ANGLE GERMAN!

Winner: Willow Nightingale, by pinfall (advances to WrestleDynasty)
That was a powerful battle from powerful young women, but it is the former AEW TBS Champion, former CMLL Women’s World Champion, and former inaugural NJPW Strong Women’s Champion who is heading to the Tokyo Dome! She will join ROH’s Athena, CMLL’s Persephone, and a Stardom star yet to be determined, who will bring home that International Women’s Cup, and the title match promise that comes with it?
As for Hayter, the lights go out for real this time! And when they come back up, JULIA HART has Hayter in position! HAMMERLOCK DDT!! Julia Hart strikes when the time is right, but will the Princess of the Black Throne make sure Hayter knows The House Always Wins?
Brody King speaks.
“When I think of the Continental Classic, I think of prestige, I think of respect. Cowards take the easy way out. Ricochet, you are a coward.” Brody is referring to Ricochet exposing a top turnbuckle and then using it against Brody. Brody says, “I have no respect for you.”
Claudio Castagnoli speaks.
“Some of my colleagues, they would be angry that they lost. I’m also not losing sight of the bigger picture. They would trade victory for success. They would rather win 100 matches than win the war.”
Strong words from two of the physically strongest men in this tournament, but to Claudio’s point, the war is not over as the round robin continues on. Will either Brody or Claudio make comebacks before we reach Worlds End?
AEW Continental Classic, Blue League: Kazuchika Okada VS The Beast Mortos!
The Continental Champion had quite the message for his opponent tonight, but the menacing minotaur never has words, only roaring and violence! Will Mortos do plenty of that to bring down the champ? Or will the Rainmaker prove he’s still the greatest tournament wrestler today?
The bell rings and we’re on the clock. The fans rally up as Okada and Mortos circle. They tie up, Mortos powers Okada to ropes, but Okada turns things around. The ref counts, Okada lets off slowly, and he fakes the chop to then pat Mortos on the shoulders. The fans applaud while Okada and Mortos reset.

Okada drags Mortos up and RAMS him into railing! Mortos slumps down and Okada leaves him behind. The ring count restarts while Okada just waits. Mortos drags himself up, hobbles back over to the ring, and he drags himself in at 7 of 10. Okada storms up but Mortos CHOPS, CHOPS, ROCKS and fires more shots! Okada kicks low and hits a DDT! Cover, TWO! Okada soaks up cheers and jeers while Mortos flounders to ropes. Mortos drags himself up, pounds the buckles to fire up, but Okada storms over. Okada fires a forearm, then an elbow!

Okada clutches his neck and the fans fire up for Mortos. Mortos eggs Okada on, scoops him, BACKBREAKER! Okada staggers around, into another BACKBREAKER! Okada hobbles, Mortos scoops again, torture rack! The fans fire up for the BEAST BACKBREAKER! Cover, TWO!!
Okada survives but the fans fire up again! Mortos drags Okada to a drop zone, then he climbs up a corner! The fans fire up but Okada ROCKS Mortos first! Okada climbs up, fires forearms, but Mortos HEADBUTTS! Okada staggers away, Mortos rises, but Okada gets under the leap! Mortos comes back, into a FLAPJACK! The fans fire up while both men are down! Mortos rises first, but then flops back down. Okada stands, the fans rally, and Okada wrenches Mortos for a MONEY CLIP! Mortos endures, reaches out, and the fans rally again. Mortos stomps around, powers Okada back and arm-drags him away!
Okada returns, dodges, and he ROCKS Mortos! MOrots ROCKS Okada! Okada UPPERCUTS! Mortos SMACKS Okada, blocks a kick, but Okada ROCKS Mortos! Mortos HEADBUTTS and both men fall! The fans cheer on “A E DUB! A E DUB!” as the ref checks both men. Mortos and Okada go to opposite corners, and Mortos roars! Mortos runs up, but Okada pops him up into the Alabama Lift, REVERSE NECKBREAKER! Okada drags Mortos up and scoops to SLAM! Okada goes to the corner per the formula, MACHO ELBOW! The fans fire up and Okada winds it up, Rainmaker MIDDLE FINGER~!
Okada drags Mortos up, ripcords, but Mortos dodges! But Okada hooks him! DISCUS- MORTOS LARIAT! The fans fire up as Mortos whips and POP-UP SAMOAN DROPS Okada!! Cover, TWO!! Okada survives and Mortos is shocked! Okada is still down, though, as Mortos goes up top! BEAST SENTON FLOPS as Okada dodges! But Mortos is right back up! Okada BOOTS him, BOOTS again, but Mortos SMACKS, CHOPS, and SMACKS Okada again! Mortos runs, but into a DROPKICK! Okada roars and the fans fire up! But Mortos roars as he sits up! Okada is scared of Mortos, but he roars back!
Mortos spins, Okada blocks and now Okada DISCUS LARIATS! Okada hurries to ripcord, RAINMAKER!! Cover, Okada wins!
Winner: Kazuchika Okada, by pinfall (gains 3 points; Mortos earns 0)
Mortos may be at zero points, but he still made Okada earn his! Okada is standing firm at second right now with 7 points, but can Mark Briscoe make it easier on everyone by bringing down Kyle Fletcher?
Toni Storm VS Shazza McKenzie!
It was quite the shocking return for the former AEW Women’s World Champion last Wednesday night on Dynamite, especially since she was no longer Timeless! Toni got her big in-ring return just last night on Rampage, will she keep that momentum going after tonight’s Collision?
The bell rings and the fans rally up. Toni shakes hands with Shazza and the two circle. They step up and Shazza kick slow!

Winner: Toni Storm, by pinfall
Another win in the comeback tour and Toni grabs a mic. “I never thought that I would get to say this, but Toni Storm is officially All Elite!” Uh, y-yeah? Toni is definitely back, but will she return back to the top of AEW?
AEW shares more footage from after Dynamite.
Reporters caught up with Mariah May to ask her about the return of Toni Storm, and Mariah said she DGAF! What happened to Toni is the same thing that happened to Mina, and it will be the same thing that happens to Thunder Rosa. Every single woman Mariah steps in the ring with has their hopes and dreams, and then they wish they were never born. Mina should just go back to modeling, because her wrestling career as she knows it is over. Mariah didn’t want to do that to Mina, she still loves Mina. But this is just what Mariah does, and will continue to do to any girl that wants to breathe the same air as her. No one can handle the Woman from Hell.
Rosa can go and yell about whatever bat s*it crazy BS she wants, Rosa just needs to name a time and place for Mariah to end her career! As for every other woman in AEW, or any other company, you all have the same dream. But there is only one reality. The Glamour has spoken, but will it fall on deaf ears?
Backstage interview with Thunder Rosa.
Tony Schiavone is with La Mera Mera and brings up Mariah’s comments. Rosa says time and place? March 16th, 2022, San Antonio, Texas, the time and place Rosa won the AEW Women’s World Championship and knew what she was made of. But it doesn’t matter who you ae when you hold the title! What matters is who you are when you aren’t. And Rosa knows in her heart that she is THE champion, for the people and for all of Women’s Wrestling! And that is something Mariah cannot say! And Mariah is cleaning up a mess with her ex-bestie, Toni Storm, but Rosa has a place reserved for Mariah in Hell!
Speaking of Toni Storm, she walks in and says hello, nice to meet everyone. Oh, sorry, she didn’t mean to interrupt. Hi, she’s Toni Storm, she just wanted to introduce herself. They shake hands and Storm says it is a pleasure to meet Thunder Rosa, as well as the living legend, Tony Schiavone. Okay, sorry, she’ll let you all get back to what you were doing. Rock on! Toni heads out and Rosa lets that… odd interaction go. Rosa tells Mariah that in two weeks, her father will be in the audience to see his daughter fight. And she told him to bring a handful of dirt from the graveyards of Tijuana to remind Rosa where she comes from, and where she’s taking Mariah.
So it will be December 28th, 2024, Worlds End! Rosa VS Mariah for the AEW Women’s World Championship, in a TIJUANA STREET FIGHT!! La Mera Mera has spoken, will she bury Mariah in the gave Mariah has dug for herself?
AEW World Tag Team Championships #1 Contenders Match: Top Flight VS Lio Rush & Action Andretti!
There has been dysfunction showing itself in Top Flight Airlines, as evident by last week’s Dynamite Dozen Battle Royal. But then a deal was struck with Private Party: Dante & Darius Martin would have it out with their supposed friends, and the winners would get first crack at the titles. Will the team be satisfied one way or another after this? Or will the rift between them all only grow?
The teams sort out and Angel Dorado steps to the Bad Child. The fans rally up as these two stare down, both knowing Dante was the one who brought Lio into the group while Darius was hurt.

Things speed up, Darius rolls over the dropdown, but Action handsprings through the hip toss! Action talks a bit of smack, but turns around for Darius to trip him up!

Down go Darius & Dante, deja vu from the Dynamite Dozen Battle Royal! The fans are torn as Lio & Action say they’re the next champs, and Collision goes to picture in picture.
Leila Grey coaches up the Top Flight OGs, and Dante hurries in after Lio. Lio dodges, wrenches, and STUNNERS! Lio holds on to then STUNNER again! Dante flounders and Lio swaggers, then Lio stomps Dante. Lio stands Dante up to ROCK him, then he storms up to kick Dante down. Tag to Action, he and Lio both dig boots in, but the ref counts. Lio & Action let off, then taunt Dante while Action stomps away. Action tags Lio back in, they double wrench to double snapmare, then they DOUBLE PENALTY KICK SANDWICH! Cover, TWO!

Lio then runs to UPEPRCUT Dante in the back!
Dante writhes, Lio swaggers more, and Lio eggs on Dante. He dares Dante to crawl to his big brother, Darius, but then clamps on a facelock.

10 Man Tag: Daniel Garcia, Orange Cassidy, Komander & The Outrunners VS MXM Collection & The Premier Athletes w/ Mark Sterling!
While there are many things going on right now, from the Continental Classic to the war with the Death Riders, these teams are getting into the NBA spirit by having a 5v5 All Star showdown! Will the TNT Champion, Freshly Squeezed, the Commander of the Skies and the Youngest Men Alive build up some momentum for the holidays? Or will they get dunked on by Mansoor, Mason Madden, Tony Nese, Josh Woods & Ariya Daivari?
Well of course “Smart” Mark has to take over the introductions. And he says that the Premier Athletes have decided to “let the losers of St. Louis,” and of course these “model citizens,” join in on the pregame cheer. So when they say “Athletes,” you say “Rule,” nothing else! Hands in, boys. Oh, and they would be honored for MXM to put the tips in. Mansoor & Maxon put on finger protection before joining in. Ohhh…! “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!” Sterling never learns. The teams sort out and Garcia starts against the Technical Beast. The bell rings, the fans rally up, and Woods taunts Garcia. They tie up, Woods powers Garcia to ropes, but the ref counts.
Woods lets off but mocks Garcia putting his dukes up. Garcia shoves Woods, the two reset, and the fans rally up. They tie up, Woods slips around then SLAMS Garcia down! Woods waistlocks but Garcia fights off the roll-up. Woods SLAMS Garcia again, and mocks the dance! The fans boo but Garcia brushes that off. Garcia and Woods go again, Garcia waistlocks but Woods switches. Garcia switches, they go to ropes, and Woods bucks the O’Conner. Garcia avoids the knee, rolls Woods up, TWO! Woods hurries to his feet but Garcia trips him to ghost pin! TWO, and now Garcia shows Woods how it’s done!
Woods kicks Garcia low! Woods shouts, “ATHLETES!” St. Louis shouts, “SUCKS!” Woods whips, Garcia ducks ‘n’ dodges and CLOBBERS Woods! The fans fire up but Nese tags in, so Garcia knees Nese low. Garcia bumps Nese off buckles, tags in Cassidy, and the fans fire up as Cassidy stomps away on Nese! Cassidy lets off to bring Nese up, and the fans rally as Cassidy suplexes. Nese blocks, then powers free to throat chop! The fans boo, Nese whips, but Cassidy reaches out to tag Komander! Cassidy then dodges to tilt-o-whirl, but Nese stops the DDT! Nese suplexes, into STUN DOG MILLIONAIRE!
Cassidy holds Nese, Komander runs up, and Komander uses Nese to pommel horse and RANA Daivari! The fans fire up and Komander hurries to go up, up, but Mason distracts him! The ref reprimands, but Nese trips Komander up! Hot tag to Mansoor and then MXM both go after Komander. Mansoor pulls on a leg but Komander’s stuck in a backwards Tree of Woe, so Mansoor gets both legs free. MXM then hauls Komander up, CATWALK LEG DROP! Then they POSE! The fans are torn but Mansoor blows a kiss, and even mocks Garcia’s dance, while Collision goes picture in picture.
Mason joins in on the dance and Garcia wants after them, but the ref keeps him and the team back. MXM kicks Komander around, stomps him, and Mansoor ROCKS Komander to ropes. Tip touch tag to Daivari, and they mug Komander. Daivari spins Komander around to stomp him, then he tip touch tags Mansoor. They double whip Komander to a corner, then Daivari runs in, Komander goes up and over, then ducks under Mansoor, Mansoor LARIATS Daivari in the corner! Mansoor panics, Komander knuckle locks and CHOPS! Komander goes up and up, tightrope walks, then MISSILE DROPKICKS Daivari!
Komander comes back to SUPERKICK Mansoor! Komander staggers up, brings Mansoor around, tag to Turbo Floyd! Komander gets the fans fired up and Turbo climbs. Turbo rains down fists, and the fans count along to nine, flex, and TEN! Turbo tags Truth and Truth climbs up to rain down fists! The fans count again, and we go to nine, wind up, and TEN! Mansoor sputters but Truth tags Garcia. Garcia climbs up, he rains down fists, and he goes to nine, puts up his dukes, and he dances on Mansoor’s face! Garcia’s pick-up team is feeling it, and so is St. Louis, while Collision goes to break.
Collision returns as Komander tags in, but Nese & Daivari run up to mug him and The Outrunner! They toss out Turbo & Truth, then TOSS Komander to the corner! “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!” But then Garcia & Cassidy drag Nese & Daivari out of the ring! They brawl, Nese THROWS Garcia into railing while Daivari DECKS Cassidy! Komander is up and he builds speed, but Sterling trips him up! The fans boo but the ref missed that because Mansoor is distracting him! Komander grabs Sterling by the tie and the fans fire up, but Daivari CLOBBERS Sterling! The fans boo more but Daivari puts Komander on the apron.
Nese is on the apron and he suplexes Komander up and in for Woods, who then holds Komander up. Mason runs in, BOOT POWERBOMB COMBO!! Mansoor is up top now, FROG SPLASH!! Woods covers, Team Garcia all breaks it up! The fans fire up but now it’s a brawl! Team Garcia and the #PremierCollection all tumble out, Mason & Mansoor get Cassidy up! Cassidy fights the Centerfold, and Garcia slides in so he can SAIDO Mansoor! Mason HEADBUTTS Garcia! Cassidy tilt-o-whirls to DDT Mason! Cassidy kips up, the fans fire up, and Cassidy DIVES onto Mansoor! Cassidy sends Mansoor to a corner for Garcia to SHOTGUN!
The fans are thunderous as Koamnder is up top! Tightrope walk, for the SPACEMAN SWANTON! And he tags Cassidy on the way! Cassidy throws off the elbow pad, takes aim at Woods, but Sterling gets on the apron! Cassidy ORANGE PUNCHES Sterling!! Then he dodges Woods, ORANGE PUNCH!! Cover, Team Garcia wins!
Winners: Daniel Garcia, Orange Cassidy, Komander & The Outrunners, by pinfall
The team celebrates, that was a Freshly Squeezed victory! But while this was a big win and a lot of fun, it is time to focus on Worlds End. Will Garcia make his way out of the league to head for the Continental Championship? Will Cassidy overcome the Fatal 4 Way odds to finally be THE AEW World Champion?
Don Callis speaks.
“I had a bad night last night. A couple of turncoats who used to be under my employ, ‘Powerhouse’ Hobbs and Mark Davis, did a little switcharoo, a little number on the Don Callis Family. I woke up today with a hole in my heart because of that, but then I got fantastic news. The gods have smiled upon me because I am getting, in two week’s time, at Worlds End, I am getting my revenge on Powerhouse Hobbs. That’s right, a match against the Alpha, Konosuke Takeshita, has been granted. And it’s in two weeks at Worlds End, and I can’t wait.
‘If you thought everything was coming up the Don Callis Family, I’ve got one more thing to be excited about! Kyle Fletcher is getting ready right now to be in the main event tonight! And run the table and mathematically ensure that he goes on to Worlds End and then wins the Continental Championship, when he beats that degenerate, Mark Briscoe tonight on Collision. That is why the Don Callis Family is the true one percenters of professional wrestling. And you’re gonna see it tonight, and you’re gonna see it at Worlds End. And Hobbs, I’m gonna send you right back to the unemployment line.” Callis has made his promises, but will Konosuke and Kyle be able to keep them?
AEW Continental Classic, Blue League: Kyle Fletcher VS Mark Briscoe!
The Protostar is already 3-0 with 9 points, the standalone leader of this block. But will he solidify that position as Blue League’s number one seed? Or will the Aussie Arrow completely miss hitting the Sussex County Chicken?
The bell rings and the fans rally behind “DEM BOYS! DEM BOYS!” Mark and Kyle circle, and Kyle doesn’t care that the fans like Mark more. They tie up, Kyle uses height to power Mark to a corner, and the ref counts. Kyle lets off with a roll back, and he finger guns at Mark. The fans taunt Kyle with, “Ospreay’s Better!” Kyle scowls and he bails out of the ring. The fans boo but Kyle says HE is better than Ospreay! Kyle goes back to the ring, stares Mark down as he steps inside, and the two reset. The fans rally behind Mark as the two tie up, and Mark waistlocks. Kyle wrenches and wristlocks, then he pushes on the hold.
Mark rolls, wrenches, headlocks, and he grinds Kyle down. Kyle powers up and out and he RUNS Mark over! Kyle flexes but the fans boo. Mark stands up, the two reset, and they tie up again. Kyle headlocks but Mark endures the grind. Mark powers up and puts Kyle on the ropes. The ref counts, Mark lets off, and Mark eggs Kyle on. Kyle mocks the Redneck Kung-Fu as he resets with Mark. They tie up, Kyle headlocks and hits a takeover, and he shakes his head as he keeps Mark down. Kyle puts on the pressure, but Mark endures. Mark fights around, headscissors, but Kyle moves around. Kyle pops free and he STOMPS Mark down!
The fans boo but Kyle just smirks. Wait, Mark is right up! Mark dares Kyle to hit him! Kyle ROCKS Mark, but Mark ROCKS Kyle! The forearms go back and forth, and the fans fire up! REDNECK KUNG-FU UPPERCUT! Mark CHOPS, CHOPS, and CHOPS! Then he whips Kyle, Kyle reverses, but Mark goes up and out to evade the boot! Kyle is stuck on the rope, Mark CHOPS him again!

The fans fire up as Mark then WRECKS Kyle with a dropkick!
Kyle shakes out the stars but Mark builds speed! Mark DIVES and takes Kyle down at the ramp! The fans fire up and Mark puts Kyle back in the ring. Mark hurries up but Kyle runs in, CALF KICK!

Mark YANKS Kyle down, but Kyle dodges a haymaker! Mark dodges in return, and now Mark goes up! Mark avoids a leg sweep to then BLOCKBUSTER to the floor! The fans fire up for Mark and he goes back up! BANG-BANG, FOLEY ELBOW!
The fans fire up with Mark and he brings Kyle up. Mark CHOPS, then he refreshes the count. Mark stalks Kyle to railing and he CHOPS again! Kyle scrambles into the ring but Mark pursues. Kyle slides out the side, so Mark goes out the side. Mark CHOPS Kyle again, and Kyle goes to the desk! Kyle sputters but Mark brings him around to reel him in! Callis panics but Kyle BACKDROPS free! The fans boo but Mark goes to steps. Kyle hurries to bring Mark to railing, RAILING BRAINBUSTER!! Mark flops to the floor and the fans go nuts! Callis says there’s no coming back from that. Kyle then mocks Mark by setting up a chair nearby!
Kyle gets space, then builds speed, and he jumps up using the chair, FLYING CANNONBALL!! Kyle wipes Mark out with his own move, and Kyle poses with fans against their will. Kyle mocks the ref and his orders, then he DUMPS Mark over railing. But Mark rises up to CHOP Kyle! Mark goes up onto the railing, brings Kyle up, and he SUPERPLEXES to the floor! Kyle writhes, the ref checks him and Mark, and Collision goes picture in picture.
Both men are okay to continue so a ring count begins. Mark stirs and rises up, but Kyle is still grimacing in pain. Mark has the fans help him up, and he rolls into the ring. The count is 6 of 10 but Kyle is still down! Callis can’t even go near under Continental Division rules, but Kyle manages to rise at 8! And he leaps in at 9.5! The match continues and Mark storms over. Mark brings Kyle up, DECKS him, then stands him back up. Mark ROCKS Kyle again, Kyle flops against ropes, and Mark stands him back up.

Literally last minute, and the Sussex County Chicken snatches victory from the jaws of defeat! Callis is very upset by this upset victory, and now Mark has new life in the C2! Cassidy & Willow come out to celebrate with him, could Mark make himself one of the semifinalists going into Worlds End?
The Death Riders have hijacked a camera!
Jon Moxley checks if they’re rolling, and Wheeler Yuta says yeah, it’s rolling. He knows how to work that thing? Yeah. Moxley says FTR are about to get lost on their way home tonight. Oh, here they come. The Death Riders watch as Cash Wheeler & Dax Harwood walk through the backstage area. Then Marina Shafir stands in their way. Claudio & Pac snatch FTR with blindfold bags! FTR fights but Moxley helps outnumber the #TopGuys, and they drag FTR out to the parking lot. Yuta keeps the camera on him as he smiles and laughs at the carnage happening just on the other side of the wall. Will the Death Riders personally see to it that there is NO ONE to stand against them?
My Thoughts:
A great Collision here to wrap Winter is Coming Week, and I do appreciate they’re trying to get more and more people into the Death Rider story, as they should. To that end, good promo from Darby and Ospreay to try and get Ospreay to consider his part in all this. I get Ospreay’s side, he just wants to wrestle, win, and become champion again, but considering Claudio is in Gold League with him, he could end up a target, compelling Ospreay to join the fight. And quite the closing moment, with Death Riders going after FTR because they saved Cassidy from their attack. It’ll be quite the AEW Justice League moment when names like Cassidy, FTR, Ospreay and a few others stand against The Death Riders. And I say Justice League because DC Comics is Warner Brothers Discovery, too.
Speaking of the Continental Classic, awesome matches tonight for Blue League. Mortos was of course losing to Okada but he looked great against the champ. Good promo from Callis to hype up both the International Championship match of Konosuke VS Hobbs and tonight’s main event, and what an awesome win for Mark Briscoe. Kyle is leading at 9, but Okada is second at 7 and Mark is third at 6, and things could really get wild in the last round of Blue League competition. I feel like it should still come down to Okada and Kyle because Okada is the champ and should have a chance at defending his belt, and Kyle could potentially face Ospreay again.
Great 10 Man Tag from Garcia, Komander, Cassidy & Outrunners VS Premier Athletes & MXM, but it was clearly all for the fun so that the fans could stay energized during these long tapings. Good squash match win for Kris Statlander, but I feel like Lynn didn’t sell being held up for a 20+ stalling suplex much at all. Equally good squash match win for Toni Storm, and I absolutely LOVE that Toni Storm is pretending this is her first time in AEW. She got reset to her old persona so apparently that came with a memory reset, that is brilliant. Very good promo Mariah, and a very good promo from Rosa, including Toni’s part. A Tijuana Street Fight for the title, and it keeps both women strong no matter who wins.
Great tag match of Top Flight VS Lio & Action, but also a great use of Leila as a distraction in the wrong way. I almost thought she was going to turn and join Lio & Action, but Leila’s done fairly well as a Face now so I feel like she’ll stay a Face. She could easily just give a promo about how Lio & Action didn’t care about her and that’s why she sticks with Dante & Darius. Private Party VS Lio & Action is going to be a great, but I would think Quen & Kassidy win out. And then great International Women’s Cup Qualifier from Willow VS Hayter. Willow was the natural choice given her accolades.
And while it’s great for Julia to return in person, AEW sure fumbled it. The lights went out during the match, aka way too early, and then I don’t think she did a good job choosing elbow gloves. Those things were falling down the whole time, it looked more like she had a big scrunchy wristband. But hey, Hayter VS Hart in a House Rules match for Worlds End would be great for them both, and it’d be quite the way for Hart to get a return win.
